This is no help. We’d need to see how you are importing your css, and where your font files are, at a minimum. Really, it is next to impossible to help you without seeing all the files, I’ve no idea how that theme imports css.
Thanks for the quickstart-link. I started reading the documents, but I find the procedures extremely complicated and chaotic. Studying the document is like reading a German financal law with hundreds of cross-references and refers. After some time you will be lost in the deep of the law and have nothing understood. So feel I when reading Github docs.
However I will try again, but need another bottle of red wine before.
Are you trying to use (a) different fonts and host them locally, or (b) the existing fonts (Open Sans and Lora) and load them locally?
Yes, I tried. But obviously I made something wrong.
I would like to thank you all very much for all these comments and hints - I have learned a lot reading it.
As the result I decided to do the following:
- I understood that my problem has nothing to do directly with Hugo. Thats good cause I like the Hugo concept very much.
- Choosing a different theme: PaperMod. This solves my main problem (the German laywers). Besides that it is a nice and small theme so I probably will stay with it.
- Learning css in therory and practice. I’m sure that with more css knowledge my problem would have been solved very fast.
- Working with a GitHub repo. The beginning is a little bit complicated, but after a while I may understand more.
So again thanks to this wonderfull community.
Regards
Berni

If you are using BeautifulHugo theme then you just need to add
selfHosted = true
Under the [Params] section of your site config file
Thanks a lot
